Through the endless verdant forest, Sri Caitanya roams
In the jungle Jharikhanda, this time so happy on His own.
In His blissful mood, the Lord’s ecstasy soars
Dancing with the elephants, to the tigers’ delighted roars!
He and they, together again! - the animals had no fears,
Theirs the greatest fortune when Mahaprabhu appears.
Imagine that! The Supreme Himself, playing at the role
Of His own greatest devotee, calling, “ Hari Hari bol!”
Bringing love of God for all, without any reserve
distributing it freely, so beautifully He served
The goal of life; to take pleasure, but in the rightful way
So eternal knowledge and spiritual bliss may be ours, today.
Giving up their material animosity, the animals approached with curiosity.
Within their hearts the Supersoul, reminding them of the final goal;
To return to their pure and free spiritual state,
The Lord so kindly relieving them of a bestial and hostile fate.
Splashing water, singing “Krsna”, the animals were freed
by Lord Caitanya’s mercies, the greatest good indeed.
Hogs and dogs, tigers and deer, plants and tiny insects even
All of them were granted love, their sinful pasts forgiven.
He embraced the ancient trees and they were gone
On their way directly back to home.
No one can calculate the great good fortune they will meet
Having obtained the blessed dust of Lord Caitanya‘s lotus feet.
He so enjoyed to take prasad of vegetables and spinach growing wild
Bathing in forest waterfalls, our Lord so sweetly smiled.
Warming himself in evenings, with a fire made from fallen wood,
Always remembering Sri Krsna, He did so very much good;
For those who saw or heard Him obtained the highest goal,
Of love, in true Self-knowledge, their life restored, now whole.
Beautiful youthful strong and pure, radiantly golden, deeply blissful for sure
Glancing kindly, wishing the best for all the creatures of forest and nest.
Just see how wonderful Lord Caitanya appears to the tearful eyes of Tamoharadasa
Prabhupada, Los Angeles, January 16, 1969: [...] Actually, when Caitanya Mahaprabhu passed through the forest known as Jharikhanda in central India, He was only accompanied by his personal attendant, and He was alone, and when He was passing through the forest He touched one tiger. He was sleeping, and the tiger answered roaring. The company, Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s attendant, he thought, “Now we are gone.’’ But actually, Caitanya Mahaprabhu asked the tiger, “Why you are sleeping? Just stand up. Chant Hare Krishna.’’ And the tiger began to dance. So actually, this happened. When Caitanya Mahaprabhu preached this Hare Krishna movement, the tigers, the deers, the Everyone joined.

Át a végtelen zöldellő erdő, Sri Caitanya száguld a dzsungel Jharikhanda, ezúttal olyan boldog az övé. Az Ő boldog hangulatban, az Úr ecstasy szárnyal
Tánc az elefántok, a tigrisek "boldog üvöltés!
Ő és ők újra együtt! - Az állatok nem volt félelem,
Az övék a legnagyobb szerencse, amikor Maháprabhu megjelenik.
Képzeld el ezt! A Legfelsőbb magát, játszik szerepet
Saját legnagyobb hívő, amelyben "Hari Hari bol!"
Bringing Isten szeretete minden, tartalék nélkül
elosztva szabadon, olyan szépen Ő szolgált
A cél az élet, hogy öröm, de a törvényes utat
Tehát a tudás és az örök lelki boldogság lehet a miénk, ma.
Feladni anyagi gyűlölet, az állatok közeledett a kíváncsiság.
Belül szívüket a Felsőlélek, emlékeztetve őket a végső cél;
Ha vissza szeretne térni a tiszta és szabad szellemi állapot,
Az Úr oly kedvesen enyhíti ezeket a bestiális és ellenséges állam.
Fröccsenő víz, éneklés "Krisna", az állatokat engedtek szabadon
az Úr Caitanya a irgalmáért, a legnagyobb jó, valóban.
Disznók és a kutyák, tigrisek és a szarvas, a növények és apró rovarokat is
Mindegyikük kapott szeretet, a bűnös múlt megbocsátott.
Átölelte az ősi fák és távoztak
Úton közvetlenül vissza haza.
Senki sem tudja kiszámítani a nagy szerencséje, hogy találkoznak
Miután megkapta a por áldott az Úr Csaitanja a lótuszvirág lábainál.
Ő annyira élvezte, hogy a zöldségek és Prasad spenót vadon termő
Fürdés az erdei vízesések, a mi Urunk olyan édesen mosolygott.
Melegedett az este, a tüzet fából készült elesett,
Mindig emlékezve Sri Krisna, Ő megtette nagyon jó;
Azok számára, akik látták vagy hallották a legmagasabb célt elért,
A szeretet, a valódi önismeret, életük helyreállt, most az egész.
Gyönyörű fiatalos erős és tiszta, ragyogó arany, mélyen biztos boldog
Nézett kedvesen, akik a legjobb az összes teremtmény erdő és fészkelnek.
Lám, milyen csodálatos az Úr Csaitanja úgy tűnik, hogy a könnyes szemmel a Tamoharadasa
Prabhupada, Los Angeles, január 16, 1969: [...] Valójában, amikor Csaitanja Maháprabhu át az erdő néven ismert Jharikhanda a Közép-India, Ő csak kíséri a személyes kísérője, s Ő egyedül volt, és amikor elhaladt az erdőn Megérintett egy tigris. Aludt, és a tigris zúgó válaszolt. A társaság, Csaitanja Maháprabhu kísérője, gondolta, "Most már elmúltak.'' De valójában Caitanya Mahaprabhu kérte a tigris," Miért alszol? Csak állj fel. Chant Hare Krishna.'' És a tigris kezdett táncolni. Tehát valójában ez történt. Amikor Caitanya Maháprabhu hirdette ezt a Hare Krisna mozgalom, a tigrisek, a szarvasok, a Mindenki csatlakozott.

We all onsite know the beauty and purity of Rasa Manjari Devi's poems and art. Bless us, oh brahmani, with even a small fraction of your purity.
Thanks for the appreciations!
This is very nice idealistic Vaisnava behavior, an exchange of remembrances of the Lord, given open-heartedly and sincerely as gifts, and appreciations of the mind and heart and service of His devotees. Thank you very much! Sri Upadesamrta decribes revealing ones mind, giving gifts, sharing prasadam; these are exchanges to be cultivated by our devotees if we wish to be very nice Vaisnavas.
